Description: In Taylor's Ark and Medicine Show, Shona Taylor fought death and disease—with a menagerie of very special assistants. Now, in an all-new novel, Dr. Taylor takes on a new assignment, and discovers a chilling reality behind a picture-perfect planet . . .
Jardinor is, by most estimates, a new Eden: from the number of trees to the exact spacing of every lamppost and garden, the alien planet is perfection, a totally controlled terraformed world on the outreaches of colonized space. When Dr. Shona Taylor receives her posting as physician to the settlers on Jardinor, she packs up her family—children and animals, as well as Chirwl, the alien ottle—expecting a very serene six months.
But the people of Jardinor are guarding more than their perfect world. They're hiding a dark secret, and as Shona learns more about their new hosts and their strange fascination with animals, her new job turns into a nightmare . . .
